They study works from at least three historical periods, which they present formally at their end-of-semester jury, and take one or more private lessons each week, practicing an average of fourteen hours per week. Students perform in the studio recital at the end of the semester and give one off-campus, outreach performance in a hospital, nursing home, local school, or similar community venue. Prerequisites: Enrollment in MTF 154 Piano Performance for 3 semesters and permission of the instructor are required. Music, Theatre, & Film fee of $150.00 applies to this course.
